I personally had an Epic night of racing, one of my best finishes in the company we've been keeping, and some of the best battling i've had for a long time.

Some of which was very hard fought, but i hope it was considered fair game at the end. I made some strong moves on @MC-Chase and @BrandonW77, both of whom i respect and trust fully in these close situations. The same can be said for @KingKlingeling, who I feel had an unfortunate off avoiding my slower moving car on entry to the cornes. It was not intentional my friend.

to be fair to all, i think we as a group are very fair to each other and know who our main rivals are, there is a good level of skill amongst us, and good racing is always commented on in our posts from the various races that are held.

Ultimately its this challenge, and reward that make the game fun, so keep it up 👍

@kHamico, No worries about the punt these things do happen, I would guess my slow entry speed (again) caught you unaware, you were after all 2 seconds a lap quicker than me tonight!

Thanks to all for the First race of the Ruf Cup, see you all soon.

here are some pics from the first race, feel free to add your own too. Enjoy

Sneaky move on last lap, Brandon leaves the door open... I need no further invite, let the brakes off and slip it in :sly:

Wow, @hobbsy I did not notice you clawed your way up all the way to second place. I was right behind you until my unfortunate spin :ouch:

Second race I did a risky move against @amarynceos and @Torzilla early on the first lap. Had a little contact with torzilla but I had left room on the outside for him to to recover so I think it was a clean(ish) pass. Third lap was very close to my personal best if not best lap. The rest of the race it was just trying to keep @BrandonW77 at a safe distance. That was nerve wrecking 20 minutes... :eek: Without @KingKlingeling and @kHamcio retiring I would have had zero chance of getting gold.

wow, those are some great pictures @hobbsy .
had a absolutely great 1st race , was even able to fight against @kHamcio for 2laps, until he decided to left me in the dust Marc Marquez style :crazy:
the battle with @BrandonW77 was also great,as usual :cheers:
he did a new move :sly: he drift-bombed me in 1 corner exit :D I had to lol seeing him fishtailing into the lead :cheers:
after @hobbsy cought up I knew he had the pace to take the podium, such effort gets rewarded 👍.

had a lot of fun and join the next 1 of course :cheers:

Seeing as we've raced the RUF at Silverstone two weeks in a row now, personally I'm ready to move on to a new track. I'm sure we'll have good racing at the next one too. 👍

... Yea, I have to agree... So hobbsy, are we keeping the same RUF for Nurb or switching to different one like in Ferrari Festival? Also are we going to have a F3 Event instead next sunday?

Just asking :)
